Mission

Global Action Project's mission is to work with young people most affected by injustice to build the knowledge, tools, and relationships needed to create media for community power, cultural expression, and political change.

What We Do

Founded in 1991, Global Action Project has provided media-arts and leadership education for thousands of youth living in underserved communities across New York City and the country.

G.A.P. works in three areas.

Our core program, Urban Voices, annually supports 100 youths' leadership, creativity, critical thinking, and community engagement through collaborative social-issue media production; as well as supports their aspirations for higher learning through college awareness and preparation.

Through strategic partnerships and outreach, our youth-produced media are seen by annual audiences numbering 200,000 and are used by organizers and educators in curricula and community campaigns for social justice. landscape and respond with powerful messages of their own.

Curricula

The product of over two decades of experience, Global Action Project's Media In Action Curriculum is available here for free download. Grab it, read it, use it, adapt it, and tell us how it worked (or didn't) for you. Global Action Project developed the Media In Action Curriculum through its after-school media arts programs and, more recently, its Media in Action trainings. Media in Action runs multi-day, intergenerational trainings for community organizers who want to harness the power of youth media to move their work further, faster.
